| Very cool.
I thought you would need a FW upgrade and this USB keyboard to get on the web. So this is great news.

This is cool, but it looks like alot of work to set up your own dns bindings and such to make it go where you want. |

said by boog  :This is cool, but it looks like alot of work to set up your own dns bindings and such to make it go where you want. yeah it is totally useless, but I thought it was at least interesting to see a website on the screen. I guess they or someone will release a decent internet suite on it sooner or later. Perhaps one that can be stored on the memory stick instead of a UMD. |

Re: why
Perhaps of having the damn thing hacked to the back of beyond, but if they were that concerned, it wouldn't accept a memory stick.

But it's not like they can honestly believe it won't be hacked. Hell I wouldn't buy a game system that couldn't be hacked... who the hell wants to pay 50$ a pop for games? |

|  Why?
I have absolutely no interest in gadgets like this one. Why people buy them is beyond me.
Kids buying them, I can understand that but young adults and older people I really can't. Considering it's price tag I don't think Sony is targeting kids.

yeah really it only costs 2x as much as a freaking xbox!
this is probally just sonys way of getting in on the portable market, and/or something to make money before the ps3 comes out
lcd screens might be cool, and black plastic might be also but i cant justify $300 for plastic! it better make movies, take pictures, pick up tv stations, and start your car remotely before i would even consider it for that much

Re: why
So you'll only buy a game system where you can pirate games on it? That's pretty lame. |

Of course It's the Dollar sign in front of the Amount and not to right of the Amount, Only the Cent sign goes to the Right of the Amount.

said by AbBaZaBbA :don't they just include a web browser... what are they afraid of? Maybe they didn't have time to test and implement it. Apparently they really rushed a lot of units to the US, and consequently a lot of defects have been revealed (dead pixels etc).
